I think we should completely do away with the toggle model, as well as the entire idea of Torbutton as a separate piece of user-facing software, and rely solely on the Tor Browser Bundles, except perhaps with the addition of standalone Tor+Vidalia binaries for use by experts and relay operators. [Snip] So can anyone bring up any specific issues that may be caused by the change? We are collecting these issues as child tickets of this bug: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/2880 As an aside, we also are collecting a similar set of issues for the removal of an HTTP proxy entirely from the tor distribution: https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/2844
My normal use case is to run Tor on a computer different from the computer which is running the browser. I then use ssh to either tunnel the HTTP proxy connection to an instance of Privoxy running on the same computer that is running Tor or I tunnel the output from Privoxy on the computer running the browser to port 9050 on the computer running Tor. (I use both methods depending on which computer I am browsing from.) I have not yet figured out how your proposal effects these use cases.
Should I decide to add entries to the tracker, does one have to register to do so?
